The New Queens of the Stone Age Album Is Here. Stream ‘Villains’ Now.

By Riot Fest / August 25, 2017August 25, 2017 / Chicago, Music, News

Queens of the Stone Age have released their new album Villains. You can stream it now, and yes, it’s awesome.

See Queens of the Stone Age at Riot Fest on September 16th at Douglas Park.

According to Consequence of Sound, in a statement, Josh Homme said the album’s title, Villains, “isn’t a political statement. It has nothing to do with Trump or any of that shit. It’s simply 1) a word that looks fantastic and 2) a comment on the three versions of every scenario: yours, mine and what actually happened… Everyone needs someone or something to rail against—their villain—same as it ever was. You can’t control that. The only thing you can really control is when you let go.”

Producer Mark Ronson says, “Queens are and have always been my favourite rock n roll band ever since I walked into Tower on Sunset and bought Rated R in the summer of 2000, so it was incredibly surreal to be welcomed into their secret, pirate clan—or the ‘jacuzzi’ as Josh likes to call it. I also knew that my super fandom alone would not keep me in the jacuzzi. There were moments during the making of the album in which i was aware i was watching my musical heroes craft something that was sure to become one of my favourite moments on any Queens album. And to have some part in that felt like being in a dream–a very heavy, dark, wonderful dream.”

Villains Track List:
01. Feet Don’t Fail Me
02. The Way You Used to Do
03. Domesticated Animals
04. Fortress
05. Head Like a Haunted House
06. Un-Reborn Again
07. Hideaway
08. The Evil Has Landed
09. Villains of Circumstance
